Getting there
Somewhat walkable
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travelers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
Quaint hotel in the most ideal location to walk to Juan Les Pins and Antibes, perfect for strolling to the beach and out for dinner. The owners were absolutely delightful and provide such wonderful hospitality! The breakfasts were a particular highlight, plenty of pastries, fresh fruit and juices and there is also a wine bar at the hotel which is a great addition. The size of the rooms are not a compromise in any way, which is more than offset by the great location. An excellent visit to Le Petit Castel!

602 / 5 000 Výsledky překladu The hotel is well situated and in a quiet location. Within ten minutes you are at the beach, in the center, in the shopping area and in the restaurant. We stayed at the hotel for 9 nights and everything was perfect. You can order breakfast the day before. Even though it's the same every time, it's French style - croissants, marmalade, butter, yogurt, fruit. We arrived in France from the Czech Republic and were pleasantly surprised when Jitka, who also comes from the Czech Republic, welcomed us at the reception. Like the owners, she was very nice and always helpful. If I were to come back to the same place again, I would definitely stay in this small hotel.

This year was our 3rd stay in 5 years at Le Petit Castel which is the perfect boutique hotel placed ideally between Juan Les Pins (7 min walk to front) and Antibe (15 min walk to old walled harbour).
Orlan and Nicholas are a vibrant young couple who really look after their guests, polite, welcoming, sincere, hard working people.
Rooms are always clean, fresh, great beds (best sleep ever) and turned over every day.
Orlan and Nicholas will make any restaurant reservations you need, even at short notice, and have some beautiful wines for you to enjoy while sitting in the beautiful palm tree shaded garden. Nicholas is a wine expert and will place a wine of your choice (very reasonable) in the fridge (if rose or white) for your arrival back if you have been away for the day.
Breakfast’s are beautiful, perfect, stylish crockery, great coffee, and typical French pastries, baguette, cheese, yoghurt, fruit juice, fruit salad, pancakes etc etc, just great.
We discovered a fantastic restaurant this year called L’Annexe in Antibe old town near harbour, unbelievable quality and superb value, typical meal for two with starters, bottle of wine and stunning filet mignon for around 70 euros. Family run restaurant by Philippe who is maitre d extraordinaire. 10/10 service and attention.
The hotel is only 10 mins from Juan Les Pins SNCF so day trips to Nice, Monaco, St Tropez and Cannes are only 20 - 40 mins ride away.
From the hotel you can walk around the stunning Cap De Antibe (3-4 hours) viewing some of the amazing houses owned by billionaires.
You can hire a motor boat for the day at Antibe harbour for 170 euros and anchor up in one of the stunning bays looking into the gardens in these residences, just amazing. Look online at the 50’s and 60’s history.
If you want the real Cote D’Azur experience, Juan Les Pins/Antibes and Hotel Les Petit Castel are for you.
Be back again next year.

We enjoyed every day of our 10 days stay in Le Petit Castel Hotel. Excellent location, within short walking distance to beaches on East and West coasts of Cap d'Antibes. Lots of good restaurants in the area. Comfortable, very functional room. Cozy patio where you can have the breakfast or just sit and relax after the long day of traveling along Côte d'Azur - one of the most beautiful coasts in the world. Last but not least, excellent hosts, the owners of this truly exceptional small hotel Nicolas and Orlane. With love! It’s not just a slogan, that’s how they built this business. Friendly, hospitable, very knowledgable. Concierge service in many 5-star hotels pales in comparison with the advices and help that we received from Orlane and Nicolas.

Wonderful hotel. Such lovely, accommodating owners who go above and beyond to help. Beautiful breakfasts in their outdoor courtyard. A short walk from all the action of the town and beach. Wonderful boutique hotel. We travelled with a 6 year old and a 2 year old and split between 2 rooms as the room are small and cannot accommodate 2 adults and a child.

Lovely place that we would love to return to! It is located in the middle between the city centre and the old town and Jean Le Pen! Nice host who were helpful when we wondered about something. Cozy little outdoor area where you can have breakfast and enjoy a drink in the afternoon/event! Place to recommend!!

Stayed for a day in Antibes and we were impressed by the hospitality of the hotel owner. Easy parking spot available and it was also close to the old town and other destinations. The room was clean only drawback would be the shower might need renovation. Overall it was a fantastic stay and we would come back!

We stayed at Le Petit Castel between 15th September 2016 22nd September 2016.
This 16 bedroom hotel is beautiful, clean, fresh, and run by a lovely young couple, Orlan and Nikola.
We arrived late at night as our flight was late in, but Nikola had stayed up to ensure we were greeted warmly on arrival. We had hired a car at Nice airport and any concerns I had with regards to getting parked vanished as there is ample on street parking, free, right outside hotel, in what is a lovely residential area. Nikola carried my partner's luggage to our room, was very polite, and presented the room's facilities very well.
The rooms are chic, fresh, clean, with a well stocked mini bar of Budwieser and other soft drinks/fruit juices. The on suite shower/bathroom contained a double shower so lots of space. Our room was cleaned and turned over every day to the highest of standards. We were given a choice of rooms opting for room 8 which had a beautiful little balcony for two where we sat and had a night cap before bed each evening. This room had lovely French doors which opened in the way to let the sunshine pour in, in the morning. A continental breakfast is served each morning consisting of Croissants, Pain Chocolat, baguette, cheese, cream cheese, pancakes, Nutella, butter, honey, marmalade, and yoghurt, with tea and coffee which filled us up well each day for our travels ahead. Breakfast is served outside in a beautiful palm tree shaded patio surrounded by flowers and flower beds. Nikola and Orlan are wonderful hosts and nothing is too much trouble, including extra tea/coffee or whatever.
Nikola provided us with a map of Juan Les Pans/Antibe identifying all the various landmarks and points of interest allowing us to navigate the area clearly without issue. Nikola also made a fantastic dinner recommendation for us at The Cap Du Riveriera which was a real experience, with great food, service, location and wine.
Nikola was born in St Raphael, and brought up in Nice. He has a degree in wine and it is clear he and Orlan have a passion for their business and the Cote D'Zure.
I have travelled to the South of France many times but for those who haven't, places to go are Canne's, Nice, Eez, La Turbie, Monaco, Menton, Draguignon, Castellaine, Saint Raphael, The Gorges Du Verdon, Moustier Saint Marie, the many vineyards of Provence, The Esterell hills, the Cap De Antibe walk, or hire a small boat for 90 Euros to take in the coastline from the sea. Thank you so much.

The place is cute...close to the beach and in a walking distant to the train. The room is tiny but got everything I need.
Service wasn't that impressive.
If the service is better than this I would give another star.

IIRC, the breakfast did not normally include eggs or ham; in contrast, they were very explicit in telling me that their breakfasts are NOT savory. If those breakfast items are important to you, I would strongly encourage you to contact them in advance to determine whether they can be made available, and if so, at what cost.
It's a great little hotel!
Bonjour :)
Our Continental breakfast is at 10€/person/day
Hope this help and do not hesitate to contact us for further information,
Best regards,
Nicolas
